In fact there is hardly any time of thc year that eases of small pox cannot be found ID the Indian villages. This IS DO reason, however. that the authorities should re- lsx their vigilance. They should zee to II that the Indians are rot only Kept out of town, but that they should not even ha allowed to cross the rlyeT.

Jamaica. Laboring Population.

The island of Jamaica is suffering in Consequence Of the withdrawal of large numbers of it's laboring population, who have been tempted Co the isthmus by the offer of high wages. and are digging the Panama canal During the years from January, lSS3, to January, iSSG, about 54. 600 such lahorers left for the isthmus IL is estimated that 3j. OOO have returned, and that with those who have gone ont the present year as many as % OOO are still absent. The immediate effect upon the condition of Jamaica has been Co raise wages until it is with great difficulty that the planters carry on their sugar busi- ness, and. at the present price of that article. many of them are contemplating suspcnding operations Co avoid loss. The ne-ro lab0rers who have returned are re- ported Co have quite generally seved their earnings, which some of them place in banks of deposit, while others are buying land. a hopeful indication for the future Of the race.

A few years ago base ball was popu-
lar game, an ali-engrossing game in
Buffalo. State Engineer Horatio Sey-
mour, Jr., found it so. Upon one OF his
visits to that city he heard men talking OF
little else than base ball ION the dock, >"

Old merchants and y "ung clerks watched
the papers and the bulletins for the scores
made by the members of the National
League, and seemed to take little Inter
est in Legitimate business. Feeling
no interest Whatever in "the Ameri-
can game" Mr.. Seymour was somewhat
disguised with the condition OF public
sentiment in Buffalo, and so expressed
himself to sympathizing friend IN the
evening. The friend proposed visit to
the circus for change, out Mr. Seymour
declined, saying that he was very tired,
and intended TO give up his room at the
hotel, 90 to the house OF an unCIe-an
elderly, much-esteemed citizen-ind 8

Toward midnight there was 4 violent
ringing at the old mans door Jtl, and
investigation revealed that q bay was at
the door with telegram for Mr.. Sey-
mour. With no little anxiety, the State
Engineer, who had been awakened from
sound sleep, tore open the dispatch,
hoping that it had no bad news from
home. Half bewildered an1 half en- :
ragged, he read: "Providence, 8; Boston,

The state engineer went back to his

correspondence of the Gazette.
ATOKA, 1. T., June 17.-One OF the
prominent men of the Choctsw nation,
Colonel Green McCurtain, has written a
letter to the Indian Journal recommend
ing that the Council take control of all
mining interests of the Nation, out of the
hands of individuals now leasing to the
several mining companies. This Is Gre
atinq a biz stir. II is believed such 2
move will be popular with the people and
that there is danger OF it's carrying. Iae
coal mine citizens are combining to hight
this movement lively. 1t is said to be
instiea.ed by the coal mine companies BE-
cause they often fed it difficult to lease
from individuals, owing to opposing
claimants for the same mine. The next
ChoctaW Council Will be an important
one in this connection and It's members
will have fine opportunity Of showing
their inyuInerability to bribery.
The mining town of Lehigh is on nlg
boom. The Coal Company is opening
Nos. > and G since the abandonment OF
Savanna, and ten to fifteen houses are
building every week for the accommoda-
ton Of new miners.
A railroad is on the tapis from Denison,
Tex, parallel with the Missouri Pacific,
to be built partly as coal road. Inc
company building this road propose te
furnish all Texas with coal. They pro
pose to take out 200 carloads or more
